a) Each share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall entitle its holder to one (1) vote in any matter submitted to vote of the holders of Preferred Stock, voting as a separate class (as opposed to voting with the holders of Common Stock as provided in Section 4(a) ). Series A1 and A2 of Preferred Stock shall not in the first 3 years exceed 20,000 shares each, unless voted on and approved by the Series A.

Section 5.  Liquidation and Change of Control Transactions

 

Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary (a “Liquidation”) or a Change of Control Transaction, the Holders shall be entitled to receive out of the assets, whether capital or surplus, of the Corporation in the case of a Liquidation, or out of the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation and its stockholders  in the case of a Change of Control Transaction, an amount equal to

 

(i) the Stated Value, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, together with any other fees then due and owing thereon under this Certificate of Designation, for each share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, on a pari passu basis with any distribution or payment upon a Liquidation or Change of Control Transaction to the holders of Parity Securities and before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any Junior Securities, plus  

(ii) the amount the Holders would have been entitled to receive as holders of the number of shares of Common Stock for which the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock are convertible immediately prior to such Liquidation or Change of Control Transaction, on a pari passu basis with any distribution or payment upon a Liquidation or Change of Control Transaction to the holders of Parity Securities and Junior Securities combined. If the assets of the Corporation or aggregate consideration received shall be insufficient to pay in full the respective preference amounts to the Holders of Series A-1 Preferred Stock and the holders of any Parity Securities described in this Section 5 , then the entire assets of the Corporation or aggregate consideration shall be ratably distributed among the Holders of Series A-1 Preferred Stock and the holders of any Parity Securities, in accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such shares if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full.  The Corporation shall mail written notice of any Liquidation, not less than 45 days prior to the payment date stated therein, to each Holder. The Corporation shall provide each Holder with reasonable advance notice (a “Notice of COC”) of the occurrence of a Change of Control Transaction or potential Change of Control Transaction, which shall specify, for each Holder, the number of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock owned on the date of such Notice of COC, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Series A-1 Preferred Stock and the date, if known, on which such Change of Control Transaction is to be effected, which date may not be prior to the date the Corporation delivers such Notice of COC to the Holders.  The calculations and entries set forth in the Notice of COC shall control in the absence of manifest or mathematical error.  Each Holder shall deliver the certificate(s) representing the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock as instructed in the Notice of COC. 

 

Section 6.  Conversion

 

a) Conversions at Option of Holder.  Irrevocably, each share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at any time and from time to time from and after the Closing Date at the option of the Holder thereof, into that number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the Stated Value of such share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock by the Conversion Price then in effect.  Holders shall effect voluntary conversions  pursuant to this Section 6(a) by providing the Corporation with the form of conversion notice attached hereto as Annex A (a “Notice of Elective Conversion”).  Each Notice of Elective Conversion shall specify the number of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock to be converted, the number of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock owned prior to the conversion at issue, the number of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock owned subsequent to the conversion at issue and the date on which such conversion is to be effected, which date may not be prior to the date the applicable Holder delivers such Notice of Conversion to the Corporation (such date, the “Elective Conversion Date”).  If no Elective Conversion Date is specified in a Notice of Elective  Conversion, the Elective  Conversion Date shall be the date that such Notice of Elective  Conversion is delivered hereunder.  The calculations and entries set forth in the Notice of Elective  Conversion shall control in the absence of manifest or mathematical error.  To effect elective conversions of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 6(a) , a Holder shall not be required to surrender the certificate(s) representing the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock to the Corporation unless all of the shares of Series A-1 Preferred  

REVOPage 11 

 


 

Stock represented thereby are so converted, in which case such Holder shall deliver the certificate representing such shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock promptly following the Elective Conversion Date at issue.  Any certificate representing shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock that have been converted in whole or part by such Holder shall be void and should be destroyed upon receipt of replacement certificate(s) from the Corporation.  Shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock converted into Common Stock pursuant to this Section 6(a) shall be canceled and shall not be reissued.

 

b) [RESERVED] 

 

c) Conversion Price.  The conversion price for the Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall initially equal $0.777, subject to adjustment herein (the “Conversion Price”). 

 

 

d) Mechanics of Conversion 

 

(i) Delivery of Certificate upon Conversion. Not later than three (3) Trading Days after each Conversion Date, the Corporation shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the converting Holder: 

 

(A) a certificate or certificates representing the Conversion Shares which, on or after the earlier of:

(A)  the one (1) year anniversary of the Closing Date; or  

(B)  the Effective Date, shall be free of restrictive legends and trading restrictions pursuant to all state and federal statutes and SEC regulatory guidelines (other than those which may then be required by the Purchase Agreement so long as it remains in accordance with all state and federal statues as well as SEC guidelines) representing the number of Conversion Shares being acquired upon the conversion of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock. Any non-affiliate may be able to convert dividends into common shares, and any and all preferred shares shall be deemed to have been held for over a year under the SEC’s rules covering tack back of like-kind securities. Any affiliate will be required to hold one year if it hasn’t already been construed. All convertible notes or debentures which have already met the required holding period shall be under the SEC’s required holding periods to be free of any legends or restrictions; and/or  

 

(A) a blank check in the amount of accrued and unpaid dividends (to the extent that the Corporation has elected to pay accrued dividends in cash).  On or after the earlier of:  

 

1) the one (1) year anniversary of the Closing Date or

2) the Effective Date, the Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver any certificate or certificates required to be delivered by the Corporation under this Section 6 electronically through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions.

 

(i) Obligation Absolute.  The Corporation’s obligation to issue and deliver the Conversion Shares irrevocable, upon conversion of Series A-1 Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms hereof are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of any action or inaction by a Holder to enforce the same, any waiver or consent with respect to any other provision hereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Person or any action to enforce the same, or any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, limitation or termination, or any breach or alleged breach by such Holder or any other Person of any obligation to the Corporation or any violation or alleged violation of law by such Holder or any other Person, and irrespective of any other circumstance which might otherwise limit such obligation of the Corporation to such Holder in connection with the issuance of such Conversion Shares; provided, however, that such delivery shall not operate as a waiver by the Corporation of any such action that the Corporation may have against such Holder or such other Person.  In the ev3ent a Holder shall elect to convert any or all of its Series A-1 Preferred Stock, the Corporation  

REVOPage 12 

 


 

may not refuse conversion based on any claim that such Holder or anyone associated or affiliated with such Holder has been engaged in any violation of law, agreement or for any other reason, unless an injunction from a court, on notice to Holder, restraining and/or enjoining conversion of all or part of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock of such Holder shall have been sought and obtained.  In the absence of such injunction, the Corporation shall issue Conversion Shares and, if applicable, cash, upon a properly noticed conversion.  Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages or all other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.  The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit a Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.  Holders rights are irrevocable

 

(ii) Liquidated Damages.  If the Corporation fails to deliver to a Holder such certificate or certificates representing Conversion Shares within five (5) Trading Days after the Elective Conversion Date provided in a Notice of Elective Conversion pursuant to Section 6(a), the Corporation shall pay to such Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock elected to be converted, $50 per Trading Day for each Trading Day after such fifth (5th) Trading Day after the Elective Conversion Date until such certificates are delivered or such Holder is reimbursed in accordance with Section 6(d)(iv) . Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages for the Corporation’s failure to deliver Conversion Shares and such Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.  The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit a Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law. 

 

(iii) Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Conversion. If the Corporation fails to deliver to a Holder the applicable certificate or certificates within five (5) Trading Days after the Elective Conversion Date, and if after such date such Holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise), or the Holder’s brokerage firm purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Holder of the Conversion Shares which such Holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion relating to such Notice of Elective Conversion (a “ Buy-In ”), then the Corporation shall  

 

(A) pay in cash to such Holder (in addition to any other remedies available to or elected by such Holder) the amount by which (x) such Holder’s total purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the product of

 

(1) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue multiplied by

(2) the actual sale price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (including any brokerage commissions) and

 

(B) at the option of such Holder, either reissue (if surrendered) the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock equal to the number of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock submitted for conversion or deliver to such Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued if the Corporation had timely complied with the Notice of Elective Conversion. For example, if a Holder purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock with respect to which the actual sale price (including any brokerage commissions) giving rise to such purchase obligation was a total of $10,000 under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Corporation shall be required to pay such Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Corporation written notice indicating the amounts payable to such Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Corporation, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Corporation’s failure to

REVOPage 13 

 


 

timely deliver certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

(i) Reservation of Shares Issuable Upon Conversion.   

 

 The Corporation covenants that it will, at all times while any Series A-1 Preferred Stock: 

(A) remains outstanding or  

(B) is reserved for issuance or otherwise issuable under any promissory note or agreement to which the Corporation is a party, reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, for the sole purpose of issuance upon conversion of such Series A-1 Preferred Stock, free from preemptive rights or any other purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (and the other holders of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock), not less than 150% of the aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock as shall be issuable (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 7 ) upon: 1)the conversion of such Series A-1 Preferred Stock; and 2)payment of dividends on such Series A-1 Preferred Stock in shares of Common Stock hereunder. 

 

 The Corporation covenants that it will, at all times while any Series A-1 Preferred Stock:  

(A) remains outstanding or

(B) is reserved for issuance or otherwise issuable under any promissory note or agreement to which the Corporation is a party, reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued shares of Preferred Stock, for the sole purpose of issuance upon payment of dividends on such Series A-1 Preferred Stock in additional shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock as herein provided, free from preemptive rights or any other purchase rights of Persons other than the Holder (and the other holders of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock), not less than 150% of the aggregate number of shares of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock as shall (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement) be issuable (taking into account the adjustments and restrictions of Section 7 ) upon the payment of dividends on such Series A-1 Preferred Stock in additional shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock hereunder.

 

 The Corporation covenants that all shares of Common Stock and Series A-1 Preferred Stock that shall be so issuable shall, upon issue, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and, if the Conversion Shares Registration Statement is then effective under the Securities Act, shall be, with respect to such Common Stock and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Series A-1 Preferred Stock, registered for public resale in accordance with such Conversion Shares Registration Statement (subject to such Holder’s compliance with its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement). 

 

vi. Fractional Shares.  No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock.  As to any fraction of a share of Common Stock, which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to receive upon such conversion, the Corporation shall at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Conversion Price or round up to the next whole share.  The Corporation may issue fractional shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock. 

 

vii.  Transfer Taxes.  The issuance of certificates for shares of the Common Stock upon conversion of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to any Holder for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such certificates, provided that the Corporation shall not be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificate upon conversion in a name other than that of the Holders of such shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock and the Corporation shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Corporation the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Corporation that such tax has been paid.

Section 7.  Certain Adjustments

 

a)  Stock Dividends and Stock Splits.  If the Corporation, at any time while any Series A-1 Preferred Stock is outstanding:  

 

(i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock on shares of Common Stock or any Common Stock Equivalents (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Corporation upon conversion of, or payment of a dividend on, the Series A-1 Preferred Stock),  

(ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares,  

(iii) combines (including by way of a reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or  

(iv) issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares of the Common Stock, any shares of capital stock of the Corporation, then the Conversion Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Corporation) outstanding immediately before such event, and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event.  Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 7(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification. 

 

a) Subsequent Equity Sales.  If, at any time while any Series A-1 Preferred Stock is outstanding, the Corporation or any Subsidiary, as applicable, sells or grants any option to purchase or sells or grants any right to re-price, or otherwise disposes of or issues (or announces any sale, grant or any option to purchase or re-price or other disposition), any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (“Additional Shares of Common Stock”) at an effective price per share of Common Stock that is lower than the lower of:  

 

(i) 93% of the average of the VWAPs for the 10 consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day that is immediately prior to the date of issuance of the Additional Shares of Common Stock; or  

(ii) the then effective Conversion Price (such lower price, the “Base Conversion Price ” and such issuances, collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (if the holder of the Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which are issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents at an effective price per share that is lower than the Conversion Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Conversion Price on the date of the Dilutive Issuance), then the Conversion Price shall be reduced to equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance by a fraction: 

 

 the numerator of which shall be:  

(A) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance, plus

(B) the number of shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents which the Aggregate Consideration received or deemed to be received by the Corporation for the total number of Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued would purchase at such then-existing Base Conversion Price; and

 

 the denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock immediately prior to such Dilutive Issuance plus the total number of Additional Shares of Common Stock actually so issued. 

REVOPage 15 

 


 

 

Such adjustment shall be made upon any issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock; provided, however , that no adjustment will be made under this Section 7(b) in respect of an Exempt Issuance.  The Corporation shall notify the Holders in writing, no later than the Trading Day following the issuance of any Additional Shares of Common Stock subject to this Section 7(b), indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such notice, the “Dilutive Issuance Notice”).  For purposes of clarification, whether or not the Corporation provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant to this Section 7(b), upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, the Holders are entitled to receive a number of Conversion Shares based upon the Base Conversion Price on or after the date of such Dilutive Issuance, regardless of whether a Holder accurately refers to the Base Conversion Price in the Notice of Conversion.

 

a) Pro Rata Distributions.  If the Corporation, at any time while any Series A-1 Preferred Stock is outstanding, distributes to all holders of Common Stock (and not to the Holders) evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security (other than the Common Stock, which shall be subject to Section 7(b) ), then in each such case the Conversion Price shall be adjusted by multiplying such Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the VWAP determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such VWAP on such record date less the then fair market value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness or rights or warrants so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors of the Corporation in good faith.  In either case the adjustments shall be described in a statement delivered to the Holders describing the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such subscription rights applicable to one share of Common Stock.  Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned above. 

 

b) Fundamental Transaction.  If, at any time while any Series A-1 Preferred Stock is outstanding,  

 

i) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another Person,  

ii) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions,  

iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Corporation or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock,  

iv) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization, or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property  

v) the Corporation, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with another Person whereby such other Person acquires more than 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other Persons making or party to, such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination), in each case other than a Change of Control Transaction (each, a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent conversion of Series A-1 Preferred Stock, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Conversion Share that would have been issuable upon such conversion immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Corporation, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “ Alternate Consideration ”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which Series A-1  

REVOPage 16 

 


 

Preferred Stock is convertible immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction.  For purposes of any such conversion, the determination of the Conversion Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Corporation shall apportion the Conversion Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration.  If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any conversion of Series A-1 Preferred Stock following such Fundamental Transaction.  To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Corporation or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall file a new Certificate of Designation with the same terms and conditions as those hereof, and issue to the Holders new Series A-1 Preferred Stock consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holders’ right to convert such Series A-1 Preferred Stock into Alternate Consideration.  The Corporation shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Corporation is not the survivor (the “ Successor Entity ”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Corporation under this Certificate of Designation and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7( d ) , pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holders of a majority (with such majority to include the Group as long as the Group continues to hold Series A-1 Preferred Stock) of the then outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and approved by such Holders  (without unreasonable delay) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and shall deliver to each Holder in exchange for its Series A-1 Preferred Stock a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to the Series A-1 Preferred Stock which is convertible for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon conversion of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with a conversion price which applies the conversion price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such conversion price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holders of a majority (with such majority to include the Group as long as the Group continues to hold Series A-1 Preferred Stock) of the then outstanding shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.  Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Certificate of Designation and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Corporation” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Corporation and shall assume all of the obligations of the Corporation under this Certificate of Designation and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Corporation herein.

 

a) Calculations.  All calculations under this Section 7 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be.  For purposes of this Section 7 , the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding any treasury shares of the Corporation) issued and outstanding. 

 

b) Notice to the Holders

 

i. Adjustment to Conversion Price.  Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 7, the Corporation shall promptly deliver to each Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. 

 

ii. Notice to Allow Conversion by Holder.  If  

REVOPage 17 

 


 

 

(A) the Corporation shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common  Stock,  

(B) the Corporation shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or redemption of the Common Stock,

(C) the Corporation shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights,

(D) the approval of any stockholders of the Corporation shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Corporation is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property or

(E) the Corporation shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Corporation, then, in each case, the Corporation shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, and shall cause to be delivered to each Holder at its last address as it shall appear upon the stock books of the Corporation, at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange, provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice.  To the extent that any notice provided hereunder constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Corporation or any of the Subsidiary, the Corporation shall, as required by applicable federal securities law, file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K.  The Holder shall remain entitled to irrevocably convert the Series A-1 Preferred Stock during the 20-day period commencing on the date of such notice through the effective date of the event triggering such notice, except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.

 

 

Section 8.  Negative Covenants
